In a bid to protect their precious data from being stolen in a threat-filled cyber world, many businesses have kept buying solutions from multiple vendors to bolster their defences.
Unfortunately, this could end up making things worse, by increasing the costs of downtime or data loss, according to a recent study on data protection by Dell Technologies.
Instead, businesses should do their risk assessments and stick with one trusted vendor, which brings a portfolio of solutions, says Saravanan Krishnan, director of data protection solutions for South Asia at Dell Technologies.
